When i miss click textBox and click [Back Space], then Browser goes to previous page.It Happens to me often. Everything would be fine, if i could customize it. I tried using "Menu Wizard", but there was no shortcut using [Back Space] so its missing from the menu.

Chosen solution

You can modify this pref on the about:config page and set its value to 2 to disable the backspace action.

  • browser.backspace_action = 2

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
